About a month away and I'm starting to get excited/nervous for my first big trip solo. Going to meet motocampers group in tellico plains and then on to Carlyle to meet with the fine folks from this forum. I think my old wing is ready...engine transplant,new clutch, tires, brake pads, steering bearings. Looking forward to meeting the folks who got me this far. Going to be camping out of my new homebuilt cargo trailer. Did I mention starting to get excited?
 
I couldn't post a pic of my rig from the tablet (can't figure out how), so here it is on the desktop 'puter.

150 lb. trailer, getting 42 miles per gallon while towing.

looking for suggestions for a tent I can stand up in that packs small.

D-50Dave, yes, I built the trailer on a modified HF frame. You can see progress pics here: Harbor Freight teardrop in "sidecars, trailers and trikes viewtopic.php?f=18&t=11359
Interesting development was the gas mileage which improved from 40mpg to 42 mpg after I hung the spare under the back to free up more space inside. go figure!
